    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is the AI Block Builder for Shopify?
    The AI Block Builder is a tool that helps you generate high-quality sections and content for your Shopify store using artificial intelligence. It speeds up page creation, keeps design consistent, and reduces manual editing.
    Do I need coding skills to use it?
    No. You can create and edit blocks through the Shopify customiser without writing code. The video shows the exact steps from start to finish.
    Will it change my existing theme or break my layout?
    It adds new blocks/sections alongside your existing theme options and won’t overwrite your theme files. You can preview changes before publishing and remove any block you don’t want.
    Is it compatible with Online Store 2.0?
    Yes. The AI Block Builder works with Online Store 2.0 themes and supports sections everywhere, making it easy to place blocks on product, collection, and content pages.
    How do I get started?
    Open your Shopify admin, go to the theme editor, and follow the steps in the video to generate and insert AI-built blocks. The tutorial covers setup, prompts, and best practices.
    Will this slow down my store?
    The blocks are designed to be lightweight. As with any new section, keep images optimised and avoid unnecessary apps to maintain fast load times.
    Can I customise the AI-generated blocks?
    Yes. You can edit text, images, and settings in the customiser or tweak styles via your theme settings. The video explains simple ways to tailor blocks to your brand.
